20 Amazing Phrases of the Lottery Winners!
When They Win the Lottery, They Shine Like Brass, and then Some Bite The Dust. LOL
Have you ever thought about what you would say if you win the lottery? Sometimes no matter how hard to prepare yourself, the jackpot just gets to you and you end up talking like a retarded philanthropist! Now I’m not saying these lottery players are retarded, nope, but all of them have something in common – they all wish to save the money for generations to come. Which obviously is a lie, but well you can’t blame them because it’s human instinct. Don’t believe me?
Imagine in a king from some country were to pick you to reign the throne, what would you say amid all the paparazzi and media? This, “Thank you for giving me this opportunity, of course I’ll waste everything in less than 2 years by getting 50 boob transplants, 500 boyfriends and about 20 cars and houses. Then probably I’ll die somewhere (from a drug overdose) you can’t even find me!” or, “thank you for giving me this opportunity, I’ll make sure that everything goes well and that I will help people in need?” LOL makes sense doesn’t it?
